Writing the technological history of how America really got to space, while trying to keep my sanity in this fascist takeover of what used to be called the United States of America.

Misconduct in public office is one of the most serious crimes in the UK and can carry a life sentence. Let's hope Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor sings like a canary. The entire UK police force is literally investigating him.

But this statement from Manhattan US Attorney Berman says he was notified of Epstein's death on Aug 9.

Art Week is going on, and there are people here from all over the world. But no one is talking about art. Everyone is talking about Trump and Epstein. Everyone.08 Feb 2026 02:43 +0000at://did:plc:f7utvjkqbgwfjonqtpfcf5fu/app.bsky.feed.post/3mecvz3f6xc2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/denisedwheeler.bsky.social/post/3mec2ehtbkc2bThe hyoid bone in Epstein's throat was broken. That doesn't happen when hung by a bedsheet. All of the cameras covering Epstein's cell weren't working. All the guards that were supposed to be watching Epstein were either mysteriously on break or fell asleep. This is what the real cover-up is.07 Feb 2026 18:29 +0000at://did:plc:f7utvjkqbgwfjonqtpfcf5fu/app.bsky.feed.post/3mec2ehtbkc2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/denisedwheeler.bsky.social/post/3mebz4kx5522bThe New York State Sex Offender Registry requested an updated photo of Epstein in 2013. Trump appointed a Navy secretary who flew around with a known child rapist and registered sex offender.

There are so many parallels to the lead-up to the American Revolution, and Trump's extreme measures in Minnesota are right in line with what King George III did to Massachusetts.07 Feb 2026 17:43 +0000at://did:plc:f7utvjkqbgwfjonqtpfcf5fu/app.bsky.feed.post/3mebxsotftk2shttps://bsky.app/profile/denisedwheeler.bsky.social/post/3mebuw3nrts26Just imagine the stuff in the Epstein files that they're holding back. Imagine the most heinous activity you can, because what we've seen so far is horrifying enough. Everything they're keeping hidden has to be 500 times worse, and Trump in the thick of it, or there would be no holding back.07 Feb 2026 16:51 +0000at://did:plc:f7utvjkqbgwfjonqtpfcf5fu/app.bsky.feed.post/3mebuw3nrts26https://bsky.app/profile/denisedwheeler.bsky.social/post/3mebtv3ek7226Musk is a Caravaggio of corruption. Chinese investors have funneled tens of millions of dollars into SpaceX through offshore vehicles to obscure their identities. It is illegal for any company with defense contracts.
